They are at the Panthers stadium in Charlotte. Hard to fill up, I'm thinking.

Re: The crowd. Bank of America Stadium seats 73,000. There were "allegedly" 20,000 tickets unsold. SC said they could have filled it up were it not for the high prices. $70 for upper level, $252 for club seats.

Whoever set these prices needs to have their head examined.

Saw someone else make a valid point - it's a 6:00 kickoff, so fans would have to take most of - if not the entire - day off to make the trip.

IMHO, ticket prices have gotten out of hand all over.

Or have someone explain the concept of price elasticity of demand.

They keep showing video from the USCe Student Union. A bunch of students who chose not to buy ticket. Let's see, how much did this game make from those students? X times x, carry the zero... Yep, that's it, zero.

I also heard the game was scheduled for Saturday but was moved to Thursday on request of ESPN.

I wonder whether the sports industry has pushed the economics too far. They are diminishing attendance by slotting games for TV convenience. Ticket prices might have reached a max. Just wait till TV contracts come up for renewal, and the cable/satellite TV audience is ... what ... 10% lower? 20% lower by then?
